Episode 1

Everyone craves a place where their mind and body are not applied to a particular task. The nearest faraway place.

Somewhere for drifting and lighting upon strange thoughts which don't have to be shooed into context, but which can be followed like balloons escaping onto the air.

Late at night, in the dark and in a bunk bed, your tired mind can wander.

Actor and director Kathy Burke joins Patrick Marber and Peter Curran on the spare mattress.

They wax lyrical about swearing at police officers, expensive food hampers from Julia Roberts, and the art of eating crisps in bed.

Producer: Peter Curran
